How should I obtain 40 psi? I have one slider guage that maxis out at 60 and another, for my ATV that maxis out at 20. Could I apply the air untill the 60 maxis out and then release air, slowly, till the 20 is all, but maxed? would this be accurate enough to not throw a spoke?

When replacing the air in the tires with the right color and pressure be sure to check the engines compression. If it's a little low you can use the left over air to boost it up. If you put in to much it may cause the muffler bearings to go bad. Take it from experience.

Never let your air get darker than 5-6.5 Roundel on the Lickford scale, otherwise you could experience flaking chrome inside your wheels, which isn't bad in & of itself, but it could cause you to develop deerbars on the barndells, resulting in a possible blowout & microfrasm at speed. Not a good thing to happen, especially if your atechme slubberdegullion has fresnic freen modulations on your slog bitsko fignut.
